Rosella Lewis

Rosella Catherine Lewis (nee Peters) is the princess of Apollonia.

Early life
Rosella was born in a village named Narcissa. Her parents, Vincent Peters and Marissa Peters, really loved her very much. But they're so poor. They're worried they can't give decent life for her.

When Rosella was 5 years old, their home visited by the moneylender. A few months ago, Rosella's parents borrowed the money (to purchase a variety of daily necessities) with the moneylender, while the monetary crisis has engulfed the village, and Vincent's job as woodcarver was deserted orders.

The moneylender asked Rosella's parents to pay their debts, but they really didn't have money. The moneylender was so angry, and he kidnapped Rosella, the replacement of their debts. He wanted to bring Rosella to the other kingdom, and sell her to forget the money. Rosella started to cry. Her parents are really sad, but there couldn't do anything.

On The Island
The moneylender brought Rosella to the other kingdom with the ship. But, one night, there was a big storm, and the ship was bobbing in the ocean. Rosella was thrown into the sea, shipwrecked, and stranded on the uninhabited tropical island.

In the morning, some animals find her on the island, and she's grown up on the island for 10 years with them: Sagi, the red panda; Azul, the peacock; and Tika, the baby elephant. She loses her memory and forgets her name, so her animal friends call her "Ro" because they find the necklace in Rosella's neck, which says "Ro". Prince Antonio who approaches the island with his royal journalist, are shocked when they noticed that Ro talks to animals. Antonio offers to take her home with him so that she could meet his parents. Ro eventually agreed to go with him.

At the Palace
When Ro and Antonio come to the palace, Ro appears on her elephant. Wherever she is welcomed by Antonio's little siblings. Ro also coincides with his parents Queen Danielle and King Peter. Rosella later discovered that Antonio happens to be marrying Princess Luciana, Queen Ariana's daughter. Ro races out of the place furthermore goes inside the garden. Meanwhile, her animal group plus the Queen's animal did an effort to brighten her up, all advise that she visits this royal party. Rosella danced beside Prince Antonio. Following on in the movie, Ro is conceded in the cell because of the curators ordered by Queen Ariana, who conceived Ro was attempting to harm the animals. Ro and Antonio get married towards the end of the movie.

Physical Appearance
Rosella has light, long blonde hair, and a pale complexion. She wears pink eyeshadow and lipstick, she is sixteen years old

Island Outfit
On her island, Rosella wore a white piece of fabric (possibly out of an old sail) that was wrapped around her and knotted above her right hip. It looks like a strapless, knee-length dress. She also had a pink flower on her right wrist and right ankle, attached with a green vine. Her hair was styled into a waist-length braid, tied with white fabric as a hairband. She wore a pink flower on the right side of her hair, and she was barefoot for most of her stay on the island because her shoes stopped fitting her.

Tea Party Wear
Rosella wears a pink dress for the tea party. It is magenta with light pink and a small blue bow. She wears pink flats with a pink flower on her hair. The middle of her skirt has tiny roses embroidered on it.

Ball Look
Rosella's new gown for the ball was designed by her animal friends. Her dress is ocean blue with sparkles added by Tika. The bodice has pink wavy cuts and her sleeves are long with mesh at the ends. Her skirt has a pink, transparent wrap with designs painted by Sagi. Azul kindly gave some of his feathers to form pink peacock feathers attached onto the back of the dress. She also holds a bouquet of roses. Rosella wears a necklace and pink flat shoes. Her hair was tied in a bun (The bun was also used by Princess Fallon in Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses).

The day after the ball, she keeps the dress but with a few edits: the peacock feathers are removed, and her hairstyle is changed. She now wears it down with a braid wrapping across the center, fastened with matching bow. It is reused of the hairstyle of Princess Genevieve in Barbie in The 12 Dancing Princesses.

Wedding Wear
Her wedding gown is white and gold. The sleeves are puffed and there was gold middle parting in the top. The skirt also has a middle parting on it, too. Her hair is borrowed from Princess Anneliese in Barbie as The Princess and the Pauper and the crown was also borrowed from Genevieve in Barbie in The 12 Dancing Princesses. She has a string of pearls attached to the top of the dresses.

Tika
Tika is one of Rosella's best friends. Tika is very loyal to Rosella, and Rosella is loyal to Tika. Tika likes having Rosella's attention and gets frightened and jealous that Rosella will forget her if she marries Antonio. Rosella is very forgiving and understanding to Tika, even after Tika hides a romantic note from Antonio.

Sagi
Sagi is a very good friend to Rosella. He gives her advice when she's in doubt. She seems to go to him when she has a problem. Sagi seems to look at Rosella as his adopted daughter, which Rosella is in a way since he and Azul raised her. Sagi is very proud of Rosella and he once comments that she's a princess in his eyes. It was Sagi's idea for Rosella to go to the ball. Sagi helps Rosella in every way he can. Sagi is also very understanding and always listens to Rosella's opinions.

Azul
Unlike Sagi, Azul and Rosella are more like siblings. They seem to disagree at times but are actually very supportive when the other is in doubt. Rosella cares deeply for Azul's well-being, and Azul (though he seems self-centered) cares a lot about Rosella. Azul is willing to give away some feathers for Rosella's dress, proving that he cares a lot about her.

Tallulah
Ever since they met, Tallulah and Rosella had been friends. Tallulah is very supportive of Rosella and helps cheer her up. Rosella helps Tallulah learn how to climb again, after learning she'd forgotten how to. Rosella also is very kind and friendly to Tallulah and is also supportive.

Prince Antonio
Rosella and Antonio have been in love ever since they've met on Rosella's island. Antonio was the first to realize his feelings for Rosella, and his goal throughout most of the film was to marry Rosella or make sure that Rosella was happy. Antonio has shown many times that he deeply cares for Rosella. Rosella also cares a lot about Antonio and was upset temporarily about Antonio being betrothed to Luciana, even though she hides it.

Antonio also loves Rosella to the point that he is willing to let her go and live his life with someone he doesn't love if it meant Rosella was to be free and be happier without him. Antonio trusts Rosella and defends her in front of his father. Antonio is not afraid to admit his love for Rosella. Rosella wants what's best for Antonio. Rosella obviously cares more about Antonio's 'happiness' than her own. Rosella doesn't want Antonio to make a mistake that she thinks he'll regret one day.

Princess Luciana
Rosella and Luciana are good friends. They are both supportive of each other and are kind to each other. Unlike most girls, these two are not against each other. Instead, these girls care for each other and don't want to ruin the other's future. When Luciana heard what her mother say a mean thing to Rosella, she stood up for her. When Ariana tripped the royal butler to pour tea on Rosella, she helped her clean the tea off her dress. At the ending of the movie, she wanted Rosella to marry Antonio because the two were made for each other. Both girls care a lot about the other's feelings. She knew Rosella was a good girl and confronted her mother by asking her why she didn't want her to eat anything unless she poisoned it. She took her mother's place as the ruler of her kingdom and always treat her people with love and respect.
